The Fourth Amendment, among other things, amends the restricted payments negative covenant to permit the Company to repurchase up to $50 million of Equity Interests (as defined in the Credit Agreement), subject to the other terms and conditions of the Fourth Amendment and the Credit Agreement.
The representations and warranties of the Company and its subsidiaries in the Fourth Amendment were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates and were solely for the benefit of the lenders party thereto. The Fourth Amendment is a contractual document that establishes and governs the legal relations among the parties thereto and is not intended to be a source of factual, business, or operational information about the Company and its subsidiaries. Accordingly, such representations and warranties in the Fourth Amendment should not be relied upon as characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances.
The foregoing summary of the Fourth Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Fourth Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
